Well, since a 3 element tribander would have less than an S unit over a
dipole or an OCF I would expect you're correct in stating you can see
almost no difference. They still have problems.

Again I ask, have you ever used an OCF ?
Also what problems do they have that other antennas do not have as long as
they are used on the bands they are designed for ?
Feedline radiation problems and odd impedances. They seldom live up to
the claims for band coverage. If you have to use a tuner anyway, why
add the unbalanced problems into the mix? Just use a balanced antenna.
